dc.description.abstractThe present study entitled “Characterization and productive performance of goat in Sadak Arjuni tahsil of Gondia district” was undertaken in Sadak Arjuni tahsil of Gondia district of Vidharbha region of Maharashtra state. The observations were recorded on 2000 local goat comprising different number of goats from each flock were observed for physical characteristic and lactation performance. The data were categorized according to flock size viz., small flock, medium flock and large flock. It was found that local goats reared in Sadak Arjuni tahsil are medium size with predominantly brown mixed with black or white in colour, convex forehead, straight horn in backward direction, pendulous ear and medium tail. Majority of local goats did not have wattles and beard. Mostly, brownish eye colour found in local goats. The 64.15% were convex forehead with average head length ranging from 15.03 cm to 15.56 cm. Horn pattern in maximum goat were straight backward and average length ranging from 7.12 cm to 8.17 cm. The ear orientation in 100 per cent goat found to be pendulous and maximum ear length recorded in local goat in both sexes i.e. 18 cm in male and 16 cm in female. The average length of neck and neck circumference ranging between 22.14 to 27.84 cm and 24.61 to 29.01 cm, respectively in adult goat. In body measurements, maximum average body length (67.50 cm in male and 64.50 cm in female), chest girth (65.46 cm in male and 64.50 cm in female), height at wither (64.50 cm in male and 63.51 cm in female) were observed in adult local goats. The body weight of local goats ranges between 20.07 to 26.21 kg. The average daily milk yield per day was 469 gm/day with lactation period of 132 days.en_US
